I'm hoping someone here remembers an old book I used to have, (actually, I still have it, but cannot find it.)
It was a good book about model railroading in general, but the 'how to' was strictly HO scale (1:87) The cover had green on it, and a photo of a guy at a hand held control at an around the wall type layout. The guy (I believe) is wearing a funny looking hat. It might instead be a guy and his son.
I cannot remember the title, but it came out probably in the 1980's and it was a really good general 'how to' for model railroading, from history of the hobby, benchwork, trackwork, kitbashing, basic painting. It even had some track plans.
If anyone remembers this book, I just want the title, so I can lok it up just in case the urge hits to try and find it for purchase again.
It annoys me that I've looked all over my house and cannot find this book. It's not something I would have chucked.
Thanks, Dave Rutan
